Working-Class Queers: Time, Place and Politics
Who cares about working-class queers in Britain today?
We are excited to be joined by Yvette Taylor, author of Working-Class Queers: Time, Place and Politics to explore topics of queer life and class in contemporary Britain.
Yvette Taylor is a sociologist and professor of Education at the University of Strathclyde, and has worked with the Scottish Government researching LGBTQ+ lives in the pandemic, and with Scottish Ballet on Safe to be Me, exploring inclusive curriculum in schools. Yvette is the author numerous books on queer life and class inequality, recently including Queer Precarities in and out of Higher Education (Bloomsbury, 2023), and Working-Class Queers. Time, Place, and Politics (Pluto, 2023).
